About FODEP

FODEP is a civic, non-governmental organization dedicated to the promotion and strengthening of democratic governance in Zambia through advocacy and civic education programmes on the electoral process, local governance and development, and human rights.

The organization was formed in 1992 as a successor to the Zambia Election Monitoring Coordinating Committee (ZEMCC), a consortium of civil society organizations which was in-turn formed in 1991 to monitor Zambia's first round of multi-party elections.

FODEP's Vision

We envision a democratic Zambia where government is accountable to its citizens and in which all citizens freely and willingly participate in the social, political and economic affairs of the country.
